Last digit (0,2,4,6)
First digit can be selected in 6 ways as "0" can't be the first digit, and for second digit we have 7 ways
So total ways=6*7*4=168

Since 0 can’t the hundreds digit, there are 6 choices for the hundreds digit. Since the digits can be repeated and any digit can be the tens digit, there are 7 choices for the tens digit.Finally, since the number must be even, there are 4 choices (0, 2, 4, and 6) for the units digit. Therefore, the number of possible integers is:

6 x 7 x 4 = 168
